I recently purchased Studio 8 and I am working with the
Dreamweaver interface. I have the lynda.com HOT book and "The
Missing Manual." Both are pretty good. I have taken Web Design in
college and worked with Photoshop and Go Live. What would you
recommend for learning Fireworks?
Thanks

Working with it.

By the way - Fireworks writes colossally bad HTML. Create
your images in
FW and your HTML in DreamWeaver.

No. You will find that if you create a simple, properly laid
out menu of
image rollovers in Fireworks, the resulting markup will be
identical to
the same menu created in Dreamweaver using the same images.
What's more,
it takes a lot less time to do it. I proved it in this
article. :-)

There are many resources out there for learning about
Fireworks. But as
Joe said, you need to work with it to get proficient. Linda
Rathgeber-Stewart's e-books are excellent resources, as are
this list of
web sites:
